Amazing
I've found the built-in ios keyboard to be almost unusable, and this is the answer to my prayers. Infinitely customizable. I'll revise my review as I gain more experience, but right now tjs appears to be exactly what I've been looking for!
Great alternative
This keyboard is exactly what I was looking for coming from Android. I hate apple but am here BC of privacy concerns with google being forced down our throats on samsung phones. One of my biggest complaints among many with apple is the keyboard. It is unbearable. This one is exactly what I was looking for. No data collection, secondary keys on long press, better prediction, and it isn't trying to guess what I'm trying to say and changing my words. Thanks for making this!

Breath of fresh air
Idk why but, for a while now, the top dogs of Silicon Valley have been running a silent anti-human operation to *slightly* worsen every little aspect of our daily lives.
The silver lining is that their AI pets are pretty good at recommending workarounds. This app was recommended to me by both Grok and ChatGPT. And man, it just works. So customizable, and yet still miles better and faster than the stock keyboard. Apple, this is how it's done. Get your act together. I will never understand how trillion-dollar companies feel comfortable pumping out subpar software.

Fantastic
This developer listens to users and adjusts to their needs. Great keyboard and even has options for pink! Amazing!
Response from developer
Swipe-typing is now available since version 4. More themes will be added soon. Pink included :)
Accurate and handy. No swipe.
Everything about this keyboard is fantastic. But there is no option to swipe-to-type. Not a deal breaker, just dissapointing.
Response from developer
This is now available since version 4. Cheers! :)
no long press option for question mark or exclamation
i bought this so that my iphone keyboard would emulate my old android keyboard feature of being able to long press a key to insert punctuation. they got the general concept but theyve prioritized long press for symbols such as: + = < ^ rather than my most commonly used symbols like ? and ! ... ive looked to see if there are options to customize ... nope! i wish i didnt pay for the app. can i get a refund?

Response from developer
? and ! have always been under the dot key accessible for you with all other punctuation options. Since version 4 you are now able to see all the hints above the letter so you can better find it.
No swipe to text. Why?
Im giving this an honest go. But No swipe to text when its a paid keyboard. is usually a deal breaker for me
Seemingly high quality keyboard
So far its been good, the key spacing is almost identical to the stock apple keyboard so its not too hard to switch to and the option to hold down on a key to get alternate symbols (for example, hold k or l to get brackets) makes typing a lot faster for me. The emoji search just doesn't work, idk why it just doesnt let me search. I didn't download any of the autocorrect languages and the app has yet to attempt to connect to the internet which is good. With a keyboard that would know everything im typing, its important that its not randomly connecting to the internet so i know its not uploading anything im typing. So far a great keyboard, and as long as it never attempts to connect to the internet (unless im downloading a new language) I would recommend it!
One thing i would like is an option to make the keys/entire keyboard taller to give more room for each key so its easier to type, but the layout works now for what it is

Just missing 1 thing
I use the tap and hold for symbol feature a lot and for some reason they left out the exclamation point from the main letter group screen. I can get period and question but now i have to go to the 123 menu just to get the exclamation point. Defeats the purpose of this app for me. Wish they would add it. Even better would be to allow customizable symbols on the letters. PLEASE fix this.

Exclamation mark has always been under period as well. I made the visibility for it better now. If you still don't like it, you can place it elsewhere via custom layout.
No option to swipe
It is so close to perfect. There are long press symbols, which is why I'm here (thanks reddit), but no swipe typing and I need it. If you don't swipe you will probably love it though. Also, I wish there were a pink theme option. Really well done though, not for me unfortunately.

Swipe-typing is now available since version 4. More themes will be added soon. Pink included :)
Failed
Failed already, leaked out typing
I would very much like scaling options
Does not really frame itself well compared to other keyboards on ipad. Ipad is odd but at least a few options for scaling on all devices would be appreciated.
Options i'd like added:
-height
-width of keys
-split keyboard
-additional option/action keys along bottom, and layouts
-computer keyboard keys like "ctrl" "tab"

Keyboard height customization is planned and will be added soon.
Needs autocorrect
I like just about everything else, but a comma could be added near the emoji key. I had been searching for a good keyboard since switching over from android and this is the best one I've found. But it definitely needs autocorrect and better predictive texts.
Response from developer
Autocorrect and predictions got a massive update since version 4! :)
Needs swipe
This would.be my ideal keyboard if it had swipe function
Response from developer
Version 4 now supports swipe-typing! :)
So close
its perfect layout to make the transiti9n from androidn and the ease of ty08ng on that platform. But the reaon killer is it seems to lack auto-correct. this was typed with making only oje correct8on 5hat woule have been impossible to read. Bummer, loking for a refund.
Response from developer
Version 4 should have a massive improvement to auto-correct!
Not supported in other apps l.
This app didn’t support to open it’s keyboard2 in other some important apps such as Facebook Messenger and WhatsApp. Even it didn’t work in Search box on App Store app. So I uninstalled it from my iPhone. Anyway, I don’t like Keyboard2 lookout design and it is different than iPhone’s stock keyboard design. I love the iPhone stock keyboard design.

It works but it needs full access to be given by you in the settings. This is something IOS requires so the keyboard could work in other apps (including search) as well. App settings have now clear instructions and explanations since version 4.
A 14 Year Step Backward?
Unless I completely missed a setting somewhere or there was an install issue twice, this keyboard does not appear to have swipe typing, which is a massive step in the wrong direction. I've been looking for a long press keyboard having come from Android but without swiping, no amount of long press keys will make up for time lost pecking at the keyboard.
I contacted the developers to see if I was missing something but have yet to receive a response so I've requested a refund from Apple. If it does have swipe/slide typing I'll certainly switch but until then I can't do it.

Swipe-typing is now included in the keyboard.
Thank you!
At last a decent third party keyboard for iPhone. I’ve been searching for one with the long press option, and this is the BEST that I have found!!!!
Great so far!
Really liking it so far. Saw it on Reddit as well. Thx!!
Help
It doesn't seem to work with messaging. It's almost perfect. It just needs some tweaks.
Response from developer
Hey! It is related with not giving full access to the keyboard2 app. Since version 4 users should be better informed about this now.
